Masterpiece loved the main character, the wisdom she shared, and the plot twist. A very compelling novel even though it is so short!

Chomp chomp so good. A delicacy tbh

I found this somewhat disjointed, and frankly quite odd. Finally had a reference to watching police shows, which put time a bit in reference, but probably anytime after the 70's. As my grandfather studied astrology and did my horoscope yearly, I enjoyed that aspect. I certainly did not anticipate the ending, and mostly? Good for the killer ;)
medium-paced

The writing was simplistic but seemed to fit the voice of the narrator, so I didn't necessarily mind that. As I got further into the book, however, it felt more and more like the novel was being used as a vehicle to push an agenda rather than to tell a story. It just felt too heavy-handed to me. I enjoyed the story itself, but was disappointed in the "holier than thou" moral stance it seemed to take.
